4. ""giving in"" during a catching action in baseball more than one answer is correct a. reduces the magnitude of the force required to stop the ball. b. increases the magnitude of the force required to stop the ball. c. increases the contact time of the hand with the ball. d. does neither increase nor decrease the impulse required to stop the ball.

A. reduces the magnitude of the force required to stop the ball.

C. increases the contact time of the hand with the ball.

D. does neither increase nor decrease the impulse required to stop the ball.

Explanation:

As we know that the force required to stop the ball is given as

here we know that

so we have

now we know that time to stop the ball is increased due to which the force to stop the ball is decreased

so we have correct answer will be

A. reduces the magnitude of the force required to stop the ball.

C. increases the contact time of the hand with the ball.

D. does neither increase nor decrease the impulse required to stop the ball.

the answer would most likely be c, because if it's a comical piece of information, it may likely not be true, if it's a site that allows anybody to edit the content, it could mean a five year old is typing the info, and if it's a tv show produced by a celeb, it may have a biased opinion.
